Buying domains with Paypal?

[Ross1982]

Any site/reseller allow this?

Thanks

You mean new registrations and NOT those in the pre-owned/second hand market, right? DreamHost - the host that I've been with for 5 years now - just lowered their domain registration to $14.95 per name year. They are ICANN-accredited and they accept PayPal.

$8.88 namecheap - can use paypal.

Yep, PayPal payment is available at DomainSite.com, where you can reg names for $6.99 or $7.77. (Am not affiliated with them, but reg most of my names there these days, and happily recommend them).


Best,

Namecheap offer registrations with Paypal funds.... I strongly recommend this service as it has superb interface & unbeatable support.

Why not get a PayPal (MasterCard) Debit Card (which even pays interest too) and then you can use PayPal at any registrar rather than only a few of them?

 

[Ross1982]

Because I can't.

Because I can't.

I was about to say that PayPal is supposed to target a market in which only a minority of its users are eligible for even a debit card; and it's a TOTALLY different clientele than the credit card owners.

Not sure what you mean?

Why would paypal target a minority market? Also, are you saying a debit card is easier or harder to get than a credit card, I assume the credit card is more difficult, right? If so, why do some here say thet can not get a debit card?

Who knows! Perhaps they are silly, perhaps they want to LOOK big. Sometimes, people get a 1-800 number just to look more established. (I do. )

 

[David G]

Sorry Nameslave, still do not see what you mean or got the answer to those questions?

There are different tiers of credit status; for some people, even a debit card is beyond their reach, THAT's why PayPal has been so popular.

I've already tried my best to answer your questions, so even if you still don't see what I mean, I have no regret at all.

Anyone know answer to this pls?

Thnx

 

[David G]

Nameslave, In what way or regarding what? No big deal at all and certainly not too important but just curious as I still do not get what this means "Perhaps they are silly, perhaps they want to LOOK big."

P.S. I think PayPal is incredibly good and valuable (especially for a merchant account - so much better than a regular credit card merchant acct) so am always curious when I see some members seemingly somewhat negative toward their various services. (Not referring to you Nameslave but some other members).

Is namecheap like godaddy aka free transfer to another namecheap account? Free fowarding etc?

Thanks

Yes to both....... free forwarding, free domain push to another namecheap account. A number of other superb free features aswell.

 

[Ross1982]

Thankyou, I will go with them.
